From Monday 23rd December 2019, adult citizens of Trinidad & Tobago can have up to 30 grammes of Marijuana in their possession and each adult in every home can own up to four (4) Marijuana plants (male or female). Citizens are, however, not allowed to smoke Marijuana in a public place or while operating a vehicle.
This comes as the Dangerous Drugs (Amendment) Act is now law and will officially take effect on Monday, as President Paula-Mae Weekes proclaimed the legislation this past Friday (20th December 2019). The Bill on the decriminalisation of small amounts of Marijuana was recently passed in the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House sent the Cannabis Control Bill (to regulate the business of Cannabis) to a Joint Select Committee, which will report to Parliament in February 2020. See the Proclamation from President Paula-Mae Weekes below and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
